    You'll still have a latency hit from the USB itself. It was really bad with USB2 video; and I'm skeptical that USB3 will have improved it enough that it's not noticeable any longer. Written from an E6430 and the mid level E-Port (can't find the exact model; it doesn't have USB3 or your model's legacy ports, but it does have more than the basic one Google is turning up).

    Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

    I use a first-gen Surface Pro (i5/4GB RAM) hooked up to a Plugable UD-3000[^] USB3 dock, in which I have three 1920x1200 monitors hooked up through USB-VGA adapters. I've played separate fullscreen 1080p videos on each monitor simultaneously, and it's pretty much flawless. USB2 is a no-starter for fullscreen video, but USB3 seems to be fine.

        How about XPS 13 Laptop™, Developer Edition? http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/xps-13-linux/pd.aspx[^]. Or if a budget is not a problem a nice XPS 15? - 4th Generation Intel® Quad Core™ i7-4712HQ processor (6M Cache, up to 3.3 GHz) - Windows 8.1 (64Bit) English - 15.6 inch LED Backlit Touch Display with Truelife and QHD+ resolution (3200 x 1800) - 16GB1 DDR3L at 1600MHz - 512GB Solid State Drive - NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 750M 2GB GDDR5 - 4.44 lbs Seems it meets all of your requests and more. And btw, that screen is amazing!
